Finally got a chance to play last night. Man what a difference a set of cheater slicks can do for a car. Destroyed the races, but still had a hard time with the RX-7 race. Didn't pass the last car till 2 laps left. Still haven't gotten much better at Nascar at the ring. Went from 11th to 7th last night. But the car is a little too unstable sometimes. I'm gonna have to tweak the suspension more to get it dialed in.
NASCAR I just left as is. CHeater slicks and it was pretty easy if you spend time on the ring.

SCREW THE LOEB CHALLENGE!!!! you do the loeb for me and ill do nascar lol

Anyone care to lend me their NASCRAP car ? Just want to see what I'm missing out on. And yes I don't own one because I hate oval racing and suck at the Gordon Challenge which I hate anyway. lol

It wasn't that difficult. I did it without a wheel too.

Yea I just don't know the ring that well. It's too long and too many turns to remember.

It kind of goes in sections. The first part of the lap is really tight then the strait up the hill then kinda quick then a hard left right then fast part ect ect

I dont remember every turn tough haha

me neither. i just remember the critical turns that you have to slow down and the ones that you need to get right on the exit for good speeds on the straight. the Mercedes Special Event helped a lot too.

Anyone throw down the cash for the Ferrari F2007? I'm wondering if it's worth it.

Jansen,
I just turned off my PS3. Do you know if the NASCAR event end tomorrow ? I could have sworn it was 1/12. If it doesn't, please send it and I'll try it out.
I just finished the "DTM" races with an M3. Kicked them in the first race, almost blew it in Nurburgring D (the car spun but I recovered and won by 3.xx) and again almost blew it in Nordschleife. Almost lost it after the long straight,right after the bridge. LOL!
